LiveView is such a breath of fresh air, especially over the vibe coded NextJS rats nests that have become the norm (that need specialized hosting, are dog slow and require a ton of proprietary paid services bolted on like caching, background workers and even auth which Elixir and Phoenix provide out of the box).
I've been loving LiveView. Been using it for a project for a client recently and it's so... chill. I like it a lot.
What caching is provided out of the box for Phoenix framework?
Doesn't seem to be mentioned in the page but if you're talking about request caching there's libraries like PlugHTTPCache or RequestCache.
Otherwise I usually use Nebulex (annotations are nice for Ecto queries) with ETS as it's faster than with Redis (if you don't care about losing the cache on deployment).
Out of the box in Elixir/Erlang, Phoenix is the web framework layer.

What do you mean?
My private next.js fullstack slop runs dockerized on my kubernetes cluster and for auth I use auth0, because I am too lazy to run keycloak or whatever dockerized auth slop is currently en vogue.
It's possible but most default to vercel and it's required if you want the fancy stuff (hybrid). And you made my point, Kubernetes is overkill as well.
Regarding auth, in phoenix it's literally as simple as "mix phx.gen.auth Accounts User users" and boom, your users live right in your database for free.
